How to just do it by shelagh_c

"The only way out is through."

How I did it: It seems the thing that used to disturb me the most was the way I was looking at myself and at the others. I used to have no respect for myself and such a huge respect for others. Why was I punishing myself so much and so long? This I cannot know. I know in turn that I had to learn the lesson : have respect for yourself if you want others to have respect for you. Keeping this in my mind, it is no longer a problem to do what I want to it.

Lessons & tips:

  • If you feel you want to do a thing, just do it. Procrastinating will devastate your self-esteem and having it done will make you feel so much better.
  • The more you are afraid of doing it, the faster do it. It feels great once done.
  • Remember to respect others and yourself.

Resources: books, like Feel the fear and do it anyway

    I volunteered at the snack bar for the volleyball and softball tournament which benefits the youth in my community. It was a good experience, interacting with jock types and seeing some of the kids I work with in a different environment. My feet were freezing and my back was sore, but I did it!

    I have this attitude just about a lot….I live for it. The thing is it’s not always around when I want it to be. Then sometimes, it’s here just not enough to help me get off my ass….like right now would be a good time….We’ll see if I get anything done tonight.

    ExtraHead is after redemption

    Too many goals... 8 months ago

    ...listed at a time.

    “43 Things” is too much (for me) to keep in my head all the time. I read somewhere that most people can only keep between 5 and 9 simple items in their head at any one time. That averages out at 7 then.

    But I find it difficult to retain stuff in my current memory so let’s say 5 items for me.

    What to do with the rest? Well I’m putting them on the ‘give up for now list’ until I’m ready to re-activate them.

    I can but try!
